Sixteen EUPHUMUHE CLASS XVilliam Brant - President Franklin Shinham Yiee-President janet Minnich - Secretary jean Oliver Treasurer Mrs. Conrad ----- Adviser As we. the class of l9-l-l, entered the Greencastle High School once again on the Fifteenth day of September we were no longer meek, shy freshmen but sophomores ready to begin the second round of our high school career, In addition to electing our class otlicers, we also chose our referees, Mary Lu Humbert and Richard Knantli, or as they are known professionally, mem- bers of the Student Council. Several boys and girls were active in the fall sports, hockey and soccer. Basketball season closed for the girls by their winning one game and losing two to their upper-classmates, but they are looking forward to a better season next year. .Xlso prominent names as l ieldy Mouse, Peepy, i'l:llLZy.U and Mole, were heard in connection with varsity basketball, Still others were outstanding on the -lunior High Yarsity. On December 23, our class held a Christmas party in the gymnasium. XN'e had several musical selections and group singing followed by the exchanging of Christmas presents and the Serving of refreshments. After members had been received into the Senior Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y. for several days the girls were seen running through the halls wearing men's garters and stockings with a large red Y painted on each forehead, this being a part of their inititation. The cast of the Tri-Hi-Y Christmas play. Once Upon A Christmas, was made up entirely of sophomore girls. This year we disregarded our old traditional idea of exchanging valentines. On March 2, the girls under the direction of Mrs. Toms put on two dances lor the County Educational Association. One dance was called the 'lSailors' Horn Pipe, and the other, l'Coming Through the Rye. Our class is also represented on Mr, lialey's gymnastic team which provided part of the program the same evening. This year we have two Glee Clubs under Miss Martin's direction, but as yet we have not put on any program. Still obtaining the ehampion's title for the largest class to enter Greencastle High School. we have a total enrollment of one hundred fourteen members Since no classroom is large enough to accommodate our entire class. we have been separated into Your home rooms. Room 3 under the supervision ot' Miss Ditifenderfer, Room 0 under Mrs. Conrad, Room 0 under Mrs. Shaulis, and Room lll under Miss Martin. VVe are looking forward to the time when we shall be juniors and seniors, and we hope to graduate the largest class that ever entered Greencastle High School. 5 ' gl.. is 6 mfr fi I
